Catherine Hardwicke (the director) has worked on a number of critically acclaimed projects such as Thirteen, Vanilla Sky, and Three Kings. She was also a member of the jury (a judge) at the prestigious Sundance Film Festival.

When I heard that Twilight was being directed by Catherine I was relieved. I've seen all of her movies and they're all really good. I knew that the movie was in good hands and that we'd be getting the movie(s) that we'd all hoped for.

She's such an energetic person and seems like the type of woman who you could start a conversation with easily. She's just so fun and grounded.

I don't think I have seen anything of Catherine's work, but after seeing her for the behind the scenes of Twilight I was like "She's so cool!!" I kind of wish I was an actor so I could get to work with her or just be a part of her crew. She is so laid back and makes it all seem less like work and more like play.

She is so awesome. I loved her sliver ninja getup in the first day of shooting video, and the whole earthquake video where she grabs the rob and kristen posterboard. I really don't think that they could have picked a better director.

I think Catherine is amazing. She has so much energy, and she loves the books just as much as we do. The only movie I've seen that she worked on is Thirteen, adn I loved it. I can't wait to see how Twilight turns out.

I loved Thirteen- and she obviously knows how to work with young actors, too. I think she'd fab, she's so full of energy, and seems really into the project. I think it's a cool choice. I like how she's working with Nikki Reed again, too.
